Our Featured Authors
 This
week we're featuring BA
Tortuga, author of the
recently released Games
People Play ebook
Adrenaline.
Tell us about your book,
Adrenaline. What inspired
you to write it? How long
did it take you to write it?
Adrenaline was born from a
joke about a short guy,
which I'll admit I can't
remember now, but the whole
book started with that 'I
thought you'd be taller'
thing. It took about 3
months, on and off, to
write.
Tell us one thing about
yourself that your readers
would be surprised to know.
I love to box. *Love* it.
Do you have a favorite genre
to read? To write? Is there
any one genre you find it
easier to write in than the
others?
I read a lot of horror and
suspense. It's absolutely my
favorite. Cowboys are, and
always will be, my first
writing love and the easiest
thing on earth. ;-)
What's the best thing about
writing? How about the worst
thing?
The best thing is that I get
to do it. There's nothing
like that first
rush of writing joy on a new
project. The worst thing?
DEADLINES!
Character or plot, which
comes first?
Character. Absolutely. My
plots change daily.
What is your favorite way to
spend a rainy day?
Playing Rock Band (I am the
house drummer, thank you
very much).
What's the best writing
advice you ever
received/found?
Shut up and write.
What are you working on now?
Bullriders! And I"m about
halfway through the next MJ/Sonny
novel :D

Author Bio
BA
Tortuga
B. A. Tortuga enjoys indulging in the
shallow side of life, with hobbies that
include collecting margarita recipes, hot
tub dips, and ogling hot guys at the beach.
A connoisseur of the perverse and esoteric,
BA's days are spent among dusty tomes of
ancient knowledge, or, conversely, surfing
porn sites in the name of research. Mixing
the natural born southern propensity for
sarcasm and the environmental western
straight-shooting sensibility, BA manages to
produce mainstream fiction, literary
erotica, and fine works of pure,
unadulterated smut.
With characters ranging from supernatural
demons to modern-day cowboys, alternative
illustrated men to Victorian dandies, the
addiction to history and atmosphere is
everpresent, and laced through with sensual
pleasure. BA's latest projects include
vamps, rodeo cowboys and a sequel to Sara's
Cowboy.
